Lingerie Shopping (Part 2): Sheer Beauty

As we laughed the stress off, we headed to another lingerie shop.
I like that shop because it carries European and American undergarment brands.
European and American designs are more sensible than local or Asian brands, at least in terms of undergarment and lingerie (but not only undergarment and lingerie).

Common Faux Pas in Lingerie (more common in Asian brands but not only Asian brands)
1) Heavily-padded to fake cleavage
Wearing a push-up bra once in a while is fine, but those heavily-padded push up bras are appalling and pretentious.
Cleavage is nice, but a cleavage up to your neck is not.
The thicker the pads are, the louder they scream 'insecurity'.
So girls, stop fooling yourselves.

2) Excessive lace, ribbons and decorations
I have seen bras covered with shimmer and sequins that it's basically a disco ball.
Pointy studs, excessive lace and ribbons are scary too.
Enough is enough, what more can I say?

3) Childish designs disguised as 'cuteness'
I don't know what other girls think, but Hello Kitty is not cute.
Cartoon characters shouldn't be on undergarment.
In case some of my readers whisper 'how about Iron Man?'.
Yes, even Iron Man shouldn't be on any piece of my clothing.

4) Weird colors
Pink is not my colour. I don't wear orange and yellow. So these won't be my choices, but this is rather my preferences.
Why would anyone produce lingerie of weird colours like neon green?
Honestly, who'd wear them? Weird colors are such turn-offs.

Okay, so when I got into that shop, I was in lingerie heaven.
The designs are sensible and excellent--a balance between being classy and sexy, feminine and cute.

Amongst the many fine designs, sheer lace lingerie is my favorite.
Decorative lace on lingerie is good, but sheer lace is even better.
Sheer lace is delicate, soft and feels fantastic against naked skin.

Just one inconvenience: I tried it on in the fitting room with my friend's presence.
She didn't try anything on but I guess she might wanna have a seat so I let her in.
It's kinda embarrassing because sheer lace lingerie basically covers nothing.
Even though the black one covers a bit better, it still shows a lot.
Well I actually like the white one too. It's more 'innocent' but definitely not innocent.

So, I ordered some sheer lace lingerie that I love! Yay!
I'm totally excited about wearing that when I go out, it'd be exciting.
Let me tell you one great thing about being a woman:
Sometimes, it feels fantastic to have a little secret that makes you feel great, like wearing some ridiculously sexy sheer lace lingerie underneath your ordinary outfit but no one knows.
And now, I just need my hair to grow longer as quickly as possible.

After lingerie shopping, my not-a-frequent-fragrance-user friend said she wants to buy fragrance.
Judging from her personality and preferences, I suggested Calvin Klein's Eternity Moment and Sheer Beauty.
I found 'Sheer Beauty' the perfect name for this post, agree?

I enjoy being a woman. Or a female alien.

Goodnight, readers. ;)

Love,
